The experienced Virginia personal injury lawyers at Kalfus & Nachman are here to aggressively pursue your claim in order to get you the compensation you deserve.

Auto Accidents

In the state of Virginia, approximately 78,000 people are seriously injured and more than 900 people are killed every year in motorcycle accidents and auto accidents, which include victims of dui accidents. Often, insurance companies will work hard to either undervalue or outright deny your claim in order to reduce their pay-outs on many of these tragic accidents. Kalfus & Nachman has the experience to battle insurance companies so that your settlement fairly compensates you for all of your medical expenses, property damage, and lost wages.

Truck Accidents

Due to their excessive size and poor maneuverability, trucks pose a particularly serious risk to other drivers in the event of an accident. Truck accident claims are highly complex due to the various federal and state regulations governing the trucking industry and the frequent involvement of multiple negligent parties in the lawsuit. Furthermore, the insurance companies representing large trucking companies possess high powered legal teams who will try and do everything in their power to reduce your settlement. Kalfus & Nachman has the skills and experience to take on the insurance companies, and we will aggressively pursue your claim in court if necessary to help you get the compensation you deserve.

Social Security Disability

If you are disabled, unable to return to work, and being unfairly denied your social security disability benefits, Kalfus & Nachman can help you file your claim and make sure that it receives the proper attention it deserves. There are a multiplicity of rules and regulations governing social security disability claims, and you will need to present a variety of forms and records at your hearing. Our lawyers will guide you through this complicated process so that you have the greatest likelihood of winning your case. We have helped hundreds of clients receive the social security benefits they deserve, and we can ensure that your case is heard significantly quicker than if you represent yourself through this process.

Traumatic Brain Injury

Traumatic brain injuries can have devastating, life-altering effects on your entire family. Many people suffering from these catastrophic injuries will often need daily care for the rest of their lives. Traumatic brain injury cases are highly complex and require a lawyer with a sophisticated understanding of the medical principles involved to prevent insurance companies from trying to claim your injury was the result of a pre-existing condition. The Virginia personal injury lawyers at Kalfus & Nachman can help you hold the negligent parties accountable for your brain injury so that you can receive the compensation needed to cover your treatment and ongoing medical care.

Medical Malpractice

If a doctor, hospital, or other health care professional provides you with negligent care resulting in serious injury, you may be entitled to receive compensation through a medical malpractice lawsuit. Our attorneys will work with medical experts who can examine your medical records and testify on your behalf. We have a long track record of delivering successful results in these complicated lawsuits.

Nursing Home Negligence

The decision to place a loved one in a nursing home is never easy, and often choosing the right home may seem overwhelming. If you suspect that your loved one has been the victim of nursing home abuse or neglect, the Virginia personal injury lawyers at Kalfus & Nachman can help you hold the nursing home liable for their actions. We will fight tirelessly to ensure that you receive the compensation you deserve for your loved one's suffering, and we will work to make sure the nursing home cannot commit the same abusive or negligent actions to others in the future.

Pharmaceutical Injuries

Pharmaceutical companies make billions of dollars a year from the products they sell to the general public. While the FDA has a rigorous screening and approval process, many drugs are rushed onto the market before they can be adequately evaluated for long term side effects. Often, pharmaceutical companies are aware of the adverse effects of their drugs, but do not take appropriate action in fear of hurting their profit margin. If you have suffered a pharmaceutical injury from taking a dangerous or defective drug, the Virginia product liability lawyers at Kalfus & Nachman can help you receive the compensation you deserve. We have the skills and experience to battle the high powered legal teams of pharmaceutical companies, and we are not afraid to pursue your claim to its completion in court if necessary.

Defective Products

Manufacturers have an obligation to maintain proper safety standards in the design and manufacture of consumer products, and they must clearly warn you of any potential risks associated with the product. When product manufacturers do not uphold this obligation, they can be held liable through a defective product lawsuit. Our experienced Virginia product liability lawyers will provide you with highly aggressive legal representation in order to help you receive the compensation you deserve.
